ST Engineering's aerospace arm liquidates subsidiary

Singapore British Engineering is ST Aerospace's 51%-owned arm.

In a release, Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd’s (ST Engineering) aerospace arm, Singapore Technologies Aerospace Ltd (ST Aerospace) today announced its 51%-owned subsidiary, Singapore British Engineering Pte Ltd (SBE), has commenced Members’ Voluntary Winding Up. SBE, a joint venture between ST Aerospace and BAE Systems plc (BAE Systems), was set up for the marketing of BAE Systems’ avionics and defence products in Singapore.

Shareholders of SBE had approved the appointment of Andrew Grimmett and Lim Loo Khoon of Messrs Deloitte & Touche Financial Advisory Services Pte Ltd as Joint and Several Liquidators for the purpose of the liquidation of SBE.

The decision to liquidate SBE was mutually agreed upon between ST Aerospace and BAE Systems, and a result of ongoing engagement and reviews between the partners to better support the latter’s business growth in the region through ST Aerospace’s global network. Existing SBE contracts are novated to ST Aerospace’s wholly owned subsidiary ST Aerospace Supplies Pte Ltd (STA Supplies) to ensure continual support to customers, and STA Supplies will work closely with BAE Systems to explore further collaboration opportunities.

The voluntary liquidation of SBE is not expected to have any material impact on the consolidated net tangible assets per share and earnings per share of ST Engineering for the current financial year.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
